Feelin’ Patriotic
So I found these little "star" boxes at AC Moore, and I have this little habit of buying all sorts of things which I am SURELy going to do something wonderful with and then of course NADA, ZIP, Zilch, and inevitably, they end up going to the "when the playdates start getting rowdy hand over the glitter and glue and SHUUSH"pile. But NOT this time!! because I SAW this western paper by SU! and I said "Stars – stripes,..sign me UP!! and then I thought – it’s time for a bella makeover!! Well not really an Original one because I made this before…but THEN I decided my GI Janey Bella needed a date, and who doesn’t love a man in uniform??
See!! Are they not the funnest EVER!! On a side note check out my circle stamp!! too cool huh? I got it from one of those dollar packs!! how cute is that!!
Would these not be cool party favors!! P.S. It’s is filled with Hot Tamales – don’t mind me, they were red, and of course, now I have raging heartburn, but that’s okay because I’m suffering for my craft!
On a serious note, I think every day is a day of celebrating our freedom and most of all honoring the people who make sure we get to keep it!
Thanks for stopping by!
